Book Concrete Bridges and Culverts  for Both Railroads and Highways  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Concrete Bridges and Culverts for Both Railroads and Highways Classic Reprint written by H. Grattan Tyrrell and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-30 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Concrete Bridges and Culverts, for Both Railroads and Highways Bridges of solid concrete are superior to those of any other material. They are as permanent as stone, and have a less cost. Masonry bridges and aqneducts built by the Romans are still standing, and some of them in use. A few old cast iron bridges remain, dating back a century or more, but a majority of the modern ones built of wrought iron and steel have a very limited existence. Forty years ago, steel bridges were believed to be permanent structures, but it is now well known that they do not generally last longer than from twenty to thirty years. Solid concrete bridges are superior to those in which reinforcing metal is required for resisting tensile stresses in the arch ring. Continuous water-soaking reduces the adhesion of concrete to steel by about 100 percent, and the effect of shocks and vibrations also tends to destroy the bond. It frequently occurs that cracks develop, sufficiently large to admit water, and when water and moisture reach the reinforcing metal, it is then only a few years before the metal is destroyed by rust. An old wire suspension bridge that recently failed, was examined and reported on by the writer, and it was found that failure occurred because of the rusting and breaking of the wire cables embedded in the anchorage.

Book Preliminary Studies in Bridge Design

Download or read book Preliminary Studies in Bridge Design written by Reginald Arthur Ryves and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Preliminary Studies in Bridge Design: Being the First of a Series of Small Volumes, Each Complete in Itself, Dealing With the Design of Ordinary Highway Bridges of Moderate Spans This book is a reprint of a series of articles under the same title which appeared in The Surveyor and Municipal and County Engineer early in 1912. It used to be the custom to begin the preface to a technical or professional work with a more or less elaborate justification for its existence and some discussion of the ground covered by similar works. Nowadays it is more usual simply to put forward a book on its merits, regardless of whether the ground is otherwise covered or not. Sometimes the author is determined to "cut in," depending upon his publisher to find a sufficiently large public; and in this he is not always to be blamed, for many of the other books on his subject may be largely of the nature of compilations, while others are out of print, so that the extent to which the ground is actually covered by books which are readily obtainable cannot easily be ascertained. The responsibility must, in fact, be thrown upon the shoulders of the reviewers. It is sometimes the case, however, that the author of a book, building up his arguments on basic principles, and conscious of a powerful impetus, knows that what he produces is not tainted with plagiarism or stuffed with compilation: it may be good or it may be bad, but such as it is it is sufficiently original to be considered on its merits. It is hoped that Preliminary Studies In Bridge Design may be regarded as a work of this character. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book The Design of Simple Steel Bridges  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Design of Simple Steel Bridges Classic Reprint written by Philip Osborne Gordon Usborne and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-22 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Design of Simple Steel Bridges IN writing this book my idea has been to revise and rearrange my former book, entitled Manual of Bridge Design, which has been used for some considerable time as a text-book on this subject by the Royal Engineers at the School of Military Engineering, Chatham. I have endeavoured to depart from the generality of text books, and to keep ever before the student the practical aim or object for which he is striving. I have also tried always to illustrate theoretical deductions and conclusions with examples from actual practice. The book is full of practical examples and illustrations, and contains many details of all sorts connected with bridge work. I have confined this work to simple bridges. On all hands text-books by celebrated men abound which investigate most thoroughly every conceivable kind of structure or girder, books which go into deep mathematics, and which at their conclusion do not venture to advise any particular course of action under any set circumstances, but leave the engineer to decide for himself. In this book I have therefore avoided any deep mathematics; a graphic solution of every problem is given where such a solution is useful, and I. Have in simple language endeavoured to advise or lay down a course of action in almost every case. And although the course of action recommended may sometimes be open to question as to whether it is the best, yet I think it is always good.

Book Low Volume Roads Engineering   Best Management Practices Field Guide

Download or read book Low Volume Roads Engineering Best Management Practices Field Guide written by Gordon Keller and published by . This book was released on 2023-11-30 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Low-Volume Roads Engineering Best Management Practices Field Guide is intended to provide an overview of the key planning, location, design, construction, and maintenance aspects of roads that can cause adverse environmental impacts and to list key ways to prevent those impacts. Best Management Practices are general techniques or design practices that, when applied and adapted to fit site-specific conditions, will prevent or reduce pollution and maintain water quality. BMPs for roads have been developed by many agencies since roads often have a major adverse impact on water quality, and most of those impacts are preventable with good engineering and management practices. Roads that are not well planned or located, not properly designed or constructed, not well maintained, or not made with durable materials often have negative effects on water quality and the environment.
